I was involved in opposing the First Wind projects under the "Expedited Wind Law" of 2008, a heinous piece of bogus legislation still on the books in Maine from a criminal corrupt company supported by lacking Governor Baldacci and self-serving Senator Angus King and others who financially benefited from the Green Scam. Nothing in Maine has changed concerning the absurdity of wind projects. Now however, the chickens have come home to roost concerning the impacts of ever increasing prices of electricity caused by unreliable intermittent sources like wind , ruined environments, and lost businesses from this failed GREEN Bogus Power Scamming (which the PUC should have ended years ago) if it had followed its mission statement to represent Mainers, not graft laden wind projects that have changed hands numerous times since. Mainers are poorer because of you , the PUC, who should have stopped this nonsense a decade ago. PUC, you are at blame for a failing Maine, along with others like Governor Mills. Having Mainer's pay any more for this scam , for unneeded transmission lines is criminal in my opinion. LOOK at electric prices over the years since PL-661, then come to the obvious conclusion. Unreliables are an abysmal failure in many ways, as they originated from a failed political narrative of Global Warming.
End this project and EnD the Green Scamming ! Even Bill Gates has stated recently human suffering is and should be the prevalent narrative of the left,Not Global Warming! Mainers are suffering , getting poorer every time they pay absurdly high electricity prices you have helped create by not ending "stranded costs" of horrendous wind and transmission projects you socialize on their backs .Businesses continue to leave the state, as well as residents like me. The Global Warming Narrative the PUC is still following is dead! Get with the program and stop the financial suffering of poor Mainers, the loss of business , caused by decisions YOU MAKE! . END THIS PROJECT!

Maine Center For Public Interest Reporting – Three Part Series: A CRITICAL LOOK AT MAINE’S WIND ACT
******** IF LINKS BELOW DON'T WORK, GOOGLE THEM*********
(excerpts) From Part 1 – On Maine’s Wind Law “Once the committee passed the wind energy bill on to the full House and Senate, lawmakers there didn’t even debate it. They passed it unanimously and with no discussion. House Majority Leader Hannah Pingree, a Democrat from North Haven, says legislators probably didn’t know how many turbines would be constructed in Maine if the law’s goals were met." . – Maine Center for Public Interest Reporting, August 2010 https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-power-bandwagon-hits-bumps-in-the-road-3/From Part 2 – On Wind and Oil Yet using wind energy doesn’t lower dependence on imported foreign oil. That’s because the majority of imported oil in Maine is used for heating and transportation. And switching our dependence from foreign oil to Maine-produced electricity isn’t likely to happen very soon, says Bartlett. “Right now, people can’t switch to electric cars and heating – if they did, we’d be in trouble.” So was one of the fundamental premises of the task force false, or at least misleading?" https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-swept-task-force-set-the-rules/From Part 3 – On Wind-Required New Transmission Lines Finally, the building of enormous, high-voltage transmission lines that the regional electricity system operator says are required to move substantial amounts of wind power to markets south of Maine was never even discussed by the task force – an omission that Mills said will come to haunt the state.“If you try to put 2,500 or 3,000 megawatts in northern or eastern Maine – oh, my god, try to build the transmission!” said Mills. “It’s not just the towers, it’s the lines – that’s when I begin to think that the goal is a little farfetched.” https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/flaws-in-bill-like-skating-with-dull-skates/

Sign up today and lend your voice and presence to the steadily rising tide that will soon sweep the scourge of useless and wretched turbines from our beloved Maine countryside. For many of us, our little pieces of paradise have been hard won. Did the carpetbaggers think they could simply steal them from us?
We have the facts on our side. We have the truth on our side. All we need now is YOU.
